If Obama is going to be our next President, we all need to acclimate to talking about his race because it will be part of his story and the national experience.

Obama belongs to a black church and receives spiritual guidance from a man that is a good friend of Louis Farrakhan. OBama has reputiated Farrakhan's endorsement but he still communes with Farrakhan's friend. I find that unacceptable. It's similar, by example, to telling ones wife she shouldn't be alarmed because of her husband's association with a close friend of Ex Gov Spritzer. I wouldn't want my hubby to be hanging in that crowd ( VBG).

Does Obama get a pass on all things related to his race? Are we all too scared to discuss it openly?

The media appears to be reluctant to discuss any race issues other than those that can be spun off as racially motivated.

What is wrong with a discussion of race, especially if it is a relative issue? 90+% of blacks are voting for Obama......maybe blacks are smarter then the women of this country who aren't voting for HIllary? ( another vbg cause I say that with jest ). Have they figured something out that has ben lost on female voters?

I do think the media would be analyzing the stats with more gusto if 90 to 95 % of all women were voting for Hillary.
